Rama or Shri Ramachandra is the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu. He is the central figure of the Hindu epic Ramayana, which is the principal narration of the events connected to his incarnation on Earth, his ideals, and his greatness. Rama is considered the Supreme Being, rather than an avatar.

1. Lord Rama’s name was given by Vashishtha Maharshi, the guru of the Raghu dynasty. His name had a significant meaning, as it’s composed of two “beeja aksharas” – the Agni Beeja (Ra) and the Amrutha Beeja (Ma). While the Agni Beeja served to vitalize his soul and body, the Amrutha Beeja rejuvenated him from all the fatigue.

2. Ram avatar is not considered to be a Purna Avatar. His incarnation was having 14 Kalas and only Shri Krishna avatar has all 16 kalas. This was done on purpose because Ravana had a boon & he was not immune against human being. if Rama avatar has been the Purna avtar he would not have classified as a human. He is also called as Purushottam. The two missing Kalas were Paripurna & Swarupavasthitha. this explains why he had to take help from monkeys and he cried as a normal human being when Sita was abducted.

3. One day, Yama came in disguise of a Rishi in order to sought to meet Rama in private. But He put in a condition that anybody who intrudes their privacy should be given a death sentence. Lakshmana was given the task of managing the gates during their discussion. But unfortunately, Rishi Durvasa arrived to meet Rama and demanded that He be let in at once or He threatened to destroy the entire city of Ayodhya. Lakshmana decided to accept the death sentence than to let the city get destroyed. Hence He entered Sri Rama’s chamber which made Rama to give death sentence to His beloved Lakshmana, but Sage Vashishta then advised Rama that disowning a loved one is equivalent to a death sentence. Lord Rama decided to disown Lakshmana who eventually left Him to depart for Vaikuntha.

4. Lord Rama had lifted and broke the bow of Lord Shiva during Mata Sita’s Swayamvar – this has been mentioned only in Tulsidas’ Ramcharitmanas. Valmiki’s Ramayana doesn’t contain this fact.

5. When Lord Rama and Lakshman were searching for Mata Sita in the forest, they had come across a demon, Kambadh whom they killed. Actually Kambadh had become a demon due to a curse. When Lord Rama went to burn his dead body, his soul was relived from the curse and he told him to befriend Sugreev.

6. When Lord Rama, Sita and Laxmana were in exile in the Dandakaranya forest, Lord Rama and Sita had a swimming race. Lord Rama was well ahead of Sita in the race but decided to slow down and let her win because he wanted to see her happy.

7. Maa Sita received Motherhood from four great women.

Mandodari – a great queen (Ravanas wife),
Varuni – goddess of sea,
Pirthvi or Bhumidevi – goddess earth,
Rani Sunaya – queen of Mithilaa (King Janaka’s wife).

8. Maa Sita – A Complete Woman.

Sita is remembered for her virtues and attributes. Her entire life constitutes an example of idealism. Sita is a perfect example of loyalty and morality. Sita is regarded as the role model of wifely love and adherence to duty. Sita is a brave woman of extraordinary brilliance. Sita is a woman of immeasurable patience. Sita is considered as the ideal daughter, ideal wife, and ideal mother, since ages.

Jai Shri Sita Ram 💟🍃🌷🌺🍂🕉🌸🌈🌻🍃🌷🌈🌸🌺🍂💟🍃🕉🌷🌻💟🍂
